Abstract:

Abstract — The adaptive-subspace self-organizing map (AS-SOM) proposed by Kohonen is a recent development in selforganizing map (SOM) computation. In this paper, we propose a method to realize ASSOM using a neural learning algorithm in nonlinear autoencoder networks. Our method has the advantage of numerical stability. We have applied our ASSOM model to build a modular classification system for handwritten digit recognition. Ten ASSOM modules are used to capture different features in the ten classes of digits. When a test digit is presented to all the modules, each module provides a reconstructed pattern and the system outputs a class label by comparing the ten reconstruction errors. Our experiments show promising results. For relatively small size modules, the classification accuracy reaches 99.3 % on the training set and over 97 % on the testing set. Index Terms — Adaptive-subspace self-organizing map, handwritten digit recognition, principal component analysis.
